PART III, LINE 1A:	AS ALLOWED BY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND FOLLOWING THE PRACTICES OF MANY MUSEUMS, THE MUSEUM HAS NOT CAPITALIZED ITS COLLECTION OF ITEMS OF HISTORICAL NATURE AND OTHER RELATED OBJECTS PURCHASED OR DONATED. THE COLLECTION IS HELD FOR PUBLIC EXHIBITION, EDUCATION, OR RESEARCH IN FURTHERANCE OF PUBLIC SERVICE RATHER THAN FINANCIAL GAIN. THE MUSEUM CONTINUALLY REVIEWS ITS COLLECTION AND MAY DE-ACCESS OR ACQUIRE ADDITIONAL ITEMS. EXPENDITURES FOR ADDITIONAL COLLECTION ITEMS ARE PRESENTED AS A REDUCTION IN THE APPROPRIATE CLASS OF NET ASSETS. PROCEEDS FROM DE-ACCESSIONS ARE REFLECTED AS INCREASES IN UNRESTRICTED NET ASSETS. THE MUSEUM HAS ESTABLISHED A POLICY THAT REQUIRES THE PROCEEDS FROM ITEMS DE-ACCESSED TO BE USED TO ACQUIRE OTHER ITEMS FOR THE COLLECTION.
PART III, LINE 4:	MARTHA'S VINEYARD MUSEUM CONSISTS OF THE FORMER MARINE HOSPITAL/ST.PIERRE CAMP PROPERTY IN TISBURY AND THE EDGARTOWN CAMPUS INCLUDING THE COOKE HOUSE, THE PEASE HOUSE, THE HUNTINGTON LIBRARY/FOSTER GALLERY, THE GAY HEAD LENS, THE CARRIAGE/BOAT SHED AND THE TRY WORKS REPRODUCTION.

PART X, LINE 2:	THE MUSEUM QUALIFIES AS A TAX-EXEMPT NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. ACCORDINGLY, NO PROVISION FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX IS REQUIRED.
